He suddenly remembered that the system had assigned a new mission just now!
Although the difficulty was a bit higher, there was still hope. He hadn't used his full strength in the first half.
At this moment, a pass from a teammate came towards his feet.
"Watch the ball!"
The match had already begun. Although Cao Baiming was a little slow to react and was momentarily stunned, he still handled the ball perfectly.
He controlled and passed, sending it to the flank, choosing the path with the highest number among the passing options.
Both teams had made substitutions in the second half, strengthening their midfield to gain more possession and control of the tempo.
For a moment, the field became a fierce battleground.
Observing the situation, Cao Baiming's vision remained exceptionally clear, unaffected by the chaos.
He actively participated in the passing rhythm in midfield, stabilizing the current pace.
The most urgent matter now was scoring! The mission was to score five goals, and if they conceded one, they would need even more.
With four minutes already passed, Cao Baiming finally seized an opportunity. After passing, he suddenly surged forward, reaching his most comfortable shooting position!
He raised both hands high, signaling to the teammate with the ball on the flank.
However, his teammate directly chose to pass back!
"Pass the ball!"
Facing such a situation, Cao Baiming could only shrug helplessly.
He almost forgot, his teammates now weren't Arsenal; the tempo wouldn't be like the Premier League!
The next few minutes saw similar situations frequently occurring.
Seeing that almost ten minutes had passed, Cao Baiming switched to plan B, actively intercepting the ball in midfield and taking a long shot!
Regardless, more shots were always good!
This match didn't need to be won beautifully; after all, there was a mission to complete. Winning was the most important thing!
He needed to actively compete. He managed to win the ball from the opponent's feet, executed a Cruyff turn, crossed the halfway line, and unleashed a super long shot.
Before distributing the ball diagonally, Cao Baiming had glanced at the number displayed on the white line in front of him. Although it was a meager 61, he figured hitting the target shouldn't be too difficult.
As expected, the football eventually reached the goal, but it landed directly at the goalkeeper's feet and bounced out.
Three times!
Cao Baiming's gaze sharpened, already anticipating the next shot.
Once he gained possession, he wouldn't hesitate!
The goalkeeper, intending to catch the ball, accidentally kicked it to a defender. The defender, thinking it was a pass from his teammate, directly sent a long ball towards midfield.
Cao Baiming's eyes lit up at the sight; this ball was clearly heading towards his area!
He estimated the approximate landing spot to be in the area ahead, where a Korean midfielder was already standing.
Without hesitation, he took two large strides forward.
If necessary, he would rely on his strength!
The Korean midfielder, upon seeing Cao Baiming, immediately became timid. Instead of seeking a confrontation, his body instinctively retreated.
In an instant, Cao Baiming had comfortable space to receive the ball. After controlling it with his chest, the ball landed directly at his feet!
Just as everyone was marveling at Cao Baiming's incredible ball sense, no one expected him to unleash another shot immediately!
The surrounding Koreans quickly broke out in a cold sweat.
This was another long-range shot from midfield, just past the halfway line!
However, this time, the ball directly struck the goal frame and rebounded into the net!
Even though the goalkeeper tried his best to save it, he was powerless; this shot was simply unstoppable!
"Two to zero!!!"
"Congratulations to the host for completing the goal, reward 1000 points!"
The atmosphere on the pitch was ignited once more!
The head coach's eyes gleamed, focusing all his attention on Cao Baiming!
Unbelievable!
Many had heard of the power of Cao Baiming's long shots, but experiencing it up close and personal for the first time was overwhelming. The sheer intensity could crush a person, a powerful, awe-inspiring pressure!
His teammates applauded him again. No one accused Cao Baiming of being selfish, because he could truly score!
Then, in the nineteenth minute, as Cao Baiming was about to dribble forward, a golden, shimmering line suddenly appeared, with the number 97 written on it.
The number for this passing route was much higher than for a direct shot. His eyes followed the line, and he saw Wu Lei.
He decided to trust it this time!
Cao Baiming faked, shaking off the center-back blocking his path, and then passed the ball!
Wu Lei was already making his run!
With a keen observation of the ball and the goal, he timed his shot perfectly before the defenders could close in!
No need for a touch!
Cao Baiming's eyes lit up. He hadn't expected Wu Lei to have this ability!
He had truly underestimated him!
The ball traveled at high speed, rolling along the ground towards the goal. Three pairs of legs stretched out to block it along the way, but they were all a step too late!
Goal!!! Goal!!!
Wu Lei's tears of excitement welled up. This was simply the most brilliant goal of his career!
Only twenty minutes had passed, and they already had three! It turned out that five net goals weren't that difficult after all!
The main reason was that the opponents were too weak!
The players from Tangguo hugged each other in celebration until the referee's whistle reminded them to return to their positions.
The situation had delighted the high-ranking officials of Tangguo. With less than seventy minutes played, they were already leading South Korea 3-0. If this form continued into the World Cup...
They would be unstoppable!
Even so, South Korea still couldn't compare to strong teams like Brazil and France!
The head coach couldn't suppress his smile. He knew very well that he would be praised by the higher-ups for his sound tactics and excellent results, and a salary increase wouldn't be far off!
Although he hadn't done much, the thought of receiving a bonus was exhilarating. Who cared about anything else!
At this moment, the head coach and high-ranking officials of South Korea were in a panic, not just a little panic, but extreme panic!
Being defeated so badly by Tangguo, how could they possibly participate in the World Cup finals in the future?
They couldn't bear to watch this scene anymore; it was utterly embarrassing, and every second was an ordeal.
The head coach watched the situation on the field calmly, remaining silent.
Although he knew he would be blamed by the outside world afterward, what could he do?
The tactics he was supposed to implement had been carried out, and the players had played accordingly, only to be repeatedly exploited and concede three goals.
Time continued to tick by, and the situation on the field changed in an instant.
